Ooo, my aging bowels have awoken me at an ungodly hour. Kenny, mate, lets summarise and bring this to a conclusion as I’m sure everybody’s absolutely bored shitless with this now. This is a thread about Donald Trump. I posted about Donald Trump. You disagreed with my post. All groovy so far. But then you let yourself down and made four pretty dickish statements: A) you said I was morbid - on a site called DEATHLIST that discusses and predicts DEATH. you insist that somebody with no control over mental faculties must be held PERSONALLY RESPONSIBLE if they catch covid in a care home. C) you said that I post ‘constant’ verbal diarrhoea about Donald Trump - I’d make a fair bet that prior to today’s exchange, I have posted less than 15 posts on this SEVENTY SIX PAGE thread - so, hardly ‘constant’. You’d have been more accurate if you’d said I post constantly about who I’d like to fuck, because that’s 100% true. D) you said I’m thick. All of these statements can be easily refuted. Now, that’s passed the time nicely while having a 5am dump ooo look I’m so thick and tired my B ) came out as a little face with sunglasses and my letters are all big!

Its really horrible, isn’t it? Did a horrendous number on me too. If your breathing starts to get any worse, get some medical help. Take care, and I wish you a speedy recovery.

Vasily Kulkov dead. Hit for me in the AODP, thanks to @Etushispushingupdaisies.

Watching Now 70's (sad, I know) loved him in The Move (yes, im fucking ancient) one of the founder members of ELO, and amazing in Wizzard. I might do a coffin lodger when he croaks. He's only (only ?) 73 but the rock (?) gods from the 70's seem to be the targets now. (Yes, I'm pissed, even admins are allowed a lager shandy occasionally )

thanks a lot ! I wasn't expecting that to be THAT bad but it's honestly kind of scary…

The Modern Lovers. Ernie Brooks raised in New York and Connecticut. This article says he was in senior year at Harvard around 1971: https://ffanzeen.blogspot.com/2010/04/ernie-brooks-lover-looks-back-at-roots.html. Backed up by this article from WSJ from 2012 which indicates his age as then 62: https://www.wsj.com/articles/SB10001424052702304724404577297761990013888 So born 1949/1950.

I hope you recover quickly. This virus is absolutely horrific.

You asked me to address your argument and I did, and you are now angry that I addressed your argument? I wasnt wrong when I called you thick and this confirms it.

Okay, take 2. It's Bob STURT, not Stuart as the Collins book says. Here's a post by him on Facebook. In the comments section he mentions Rock Candy. He lives in Adelaide, Australia now. From County Durham / London. Looks like he's still in the music business and visits the UK regularly. No clues about his age etc. and still can't find him in the GRO. Also, the only other member of Rock Candy that he's friends with is Chris Reeves who commented on that blog link you posted saying that he joined the band after the release of the single. So more info but still nothing useful.

Given the dearth of information, I'm assuming you've already come across this, but thought I'd post it anyway just in case: http://left-and-to-the-back.blogspot.com/2010/09/one-hit-wonders-13-rock-candy-remember.html Although the article muses about the band being essentially made-up, comments underneath confirm they did exist, and had gone through previous iterations. Only one name is mentioned, although it does link up with your line-up - Bob Stuart. Annoyingly, there's a guy on there who says he was selling a press cutting about them on eBay but it's 4 years old and not visible anymore. A 2019 comment suggests Bob is a neighbour of the person, but their identity is unknown, so doesn't give an area!

Close but no cigar. Gene Corman (wiki), film producer and brother of Roger, dead at 93.

George Rainey, the oldest living Zulu king, has died. He was 89. https://www.brproud.com/news/oldest-zulu-king-george-rainey-has-died/

Toured doing The Glenn Miller Story in 2015 and seemed fit as a fiddle aged 78. Saying that a lot can change in 5 years.

Frank Bowling, who is on my B-team this year as he has had a number of health problems, is now Sir Frank Bowling.

The Queens bit for deadpoolers by reminding them Tommy Steele is still alive?

You've rung Bidon's camp and offered to "polish" his remaining campaign speeches, right?

Oh what a surprise. Person who killed over 300k Americans with his incompetence doesn't get Prize for Peace. Surprised.

Most unsurprising news of the day: MPs have just given themselves a £3,300 per year pay rise. Earlier this year, they voted against giving NHS workers a pay rise. ABSOLUTE CUNTS.

You are talking about completely different things. You said that people should take personal responsibility, and I’ll say it again - how can an elderly person discharged into a Covid- hot spot care home take personal responsibility for that? It’s neither here nor there whether they are ‘living on the brink of death’. How can they be held responsible for whether they catch it or not if, as in a lot of care home cases, they don’t even have the capacity not to shit their own pants? Oh, and ‘triggered’? Really? You’ve been hanging round on Mumsnet too much.

A bit morbid? This is a fucking forum that predicts people’s death for fucksake! And let me be absolutely clear - I DO hope he gets fucking shot in the face. And fucking soon. He has no regard whatsoever for any other human being. He is a waste of valuable oxygen and offers absolutely nothing to a civilised society. And he’s absolutely thick as fucking mince. With respect to other posters, there’s no ‘I think what Lard actually means here is....’ at all - because what I actually mean is I hope he fucking dies horribly and painfully.

So, for those not following the story, WWE womens wrestler Paige (Saraya Bevis) managed to get out of that abusive relationship soon after the events Engineer mentioned above. She had to retire due to neck injuries but does bits and bobs for the WWE on screen and is currently doing Twitch gaming. So seems in a better place - at the very least, the least insane of her family. Small bar there, I admit. However, it appears she's had a very lucky escape, as former WWE Champion Alberto Del Rio is facing life imprisonment in Texas for his treatment of another girlfriend, indicted by grand jury on the charges of kidnapping, rape and threatening to kill a child. https://talksport.com/sport/wrestling/771689/wwe-alberto-del-rio-aggravated-kidnapping/ https://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-8306165/WWE-alum-Alberto-Del-Rio-accused-raping-woman-threatening-child-San-Antonio.html

Update on this, three months on - Books read/completed still none. Books previously started and progressed, one. New books started, one. Additional books bought, eight. I need to get off the internet.
